In the passage The Rules of the Game, there is a little girl named Waverly througout the story she is torn apart by two cultures American and Chinese while her mother on the other hand is all for the Chinese culture. In the text we see this many times like when Waverly's mom said "in Chinese we say" and "Chinese people do buisness, do medicine, do painting. Not lazy like American people" This is showing us that Waverly's mother does not care for American culture. But Waverly on the otherhand…

as she puts it. If you aren?t one of those, you might get her to unspool her full title: Ruth Carol Bartholomew, Founder and Headmistress of Miss B?s Garden of Music for Budding Talents. And bud they do--we do, actually, me being one of her piano students. Most of us make it into music programs like Juilliard or Eastman. And all from a school in Tampa that nobody?s ever even heard of, unless they happen to be savvy to the local music scene.…

1. The piano sonata was a genre that was very important to the Classical Era and that somewhat evolved from the regular sonata. The piano sonata was an instrumental work that was designed for two pianos, or similarly one other instrument (violin, cello, etc.) and a piano. This genre became very important for amateurs who wanted to practice and perform in the comfort of their own home and for composers who wished to express the conversation-like aspects of this genre. 2. Ludwig Van Beethoven has…

beat is created by light bass sounds and a clap on the second and fourth beat in each measure, providing a sturdy foundation for the variety of instruments played over top of it. Further, the sounds of a shaker and a repetitive chord played on a piano are noticeable. The most recognizable part of the instrumentation is the string section and guitars that play and generate the mood of the song. For example, the deeper sound of the cello can be heard during the part of the song where apl.de.ap…

focused on the crowd singing the best they could and putting every emotion into this sole song. As our director signaled as half of the song passed me and the other soloist stepped forward so the harsh intense auditorium lights fell upon us. As the piano led me in I fixed the mic to my height and despite how nervous and scared I was, I began to sing my solo the best I could, I was doing it, it felt as if I didn’t need to know the words it felt as if they were within me and I had always known…

skilled Beethoven was and did Neefe show him music, as well as he made crafted by rationalists, old and present day, referred to Beethoven as well. In 1782, preceding the age of 12, Beethoven distributed his first work, 9 Variations in C Minor for piano on a walk by Earnst Christoph Dressle. The next year, in 1783, Neefe wrote in the Magazine of Music, about his understudy. “If he continues like this, he will be, without a doubt, the new Mozart” (Neefe). When Beethoven was 18, he became the…

One of the ways in which Holmes expresses his care for the Doctor is through his sole medium of emotional expressions -- by playing his violin. While there is little information in Watsons’ accounts regarding the emotional states of the detective (with the exception of his excitement over a new puzzle and the following bouts of saturnine moods when there are no cases to be solved), we can see that the detective often turns to his violin when pondering upon a case, or even when relaxing. Holmes’…

instruments that were remade for the purpose of display. However, since the two piano that originated from Vienna, and London were built in the 1800s and are similar to the ones Beethoven had, we were not allowed to them. The other three instruments that we were allowed to try out included the clavichord, harpsichord, and fortepiano. I tinkered around with the clavichord and harpsichord to see how they keys differ from the pianos that I am familiar with. The clavichord was made out of wood and…
